Talkin‘ the Talk With Don
Since 2009, I have interviewed some of my favorite artists. I cover a lot of genres because, well, I love all kinds of music. From Classic Rock to Black Metal and all else in between, if I love an artist, I want to talk to them!

Well, what if I told you that you could be just as satanic and wicked with a female vocalist with a beehive hairdo, a male guitarist playing 50’s inspired guitar […]
